Amata

Amata (died 1233 BC) was the Queen of the Latins as the wife of Latinus.

Biography
Amata was the wife of Latinus and the mother of Lavinia. In 1233 BC, the Trojan prince Aeneas sought to marry Lavinia, but she had already been promised to Turnus, so Amata hid her daughter in the woods and enlisted other Latin women to instigate a war between the Trojans and the Rutuli. When Amata believed that Turnus had been killed in battle, she hanged herself out of despair.
